Mirror-image recesses are effective regardless of the direction of rotation. The recesses are machined in very small sliding surfaces of ceramic sealing rings using a laser beam. Such a floating ring seal has a relatively low leakage rate with low friction. Two fluids can be mutually sealed with a double recess array.

Abstract: A method for recovery of printing ink wastes is provided which greatly minimizes pollution problems attendant to the disposal of ink wastes, while permitting formulation of usable ink products from the wastes. The method involves first creating a flowable stream of material including the ink wastes, and directing this stream to a hydroheater (16) along with incoming steam. In the hydroheater (16), the ink wastes are subjected to elevated temperatures and pressures, and intense shear, creating a homogeneous, flowable output. This output may then be dried and powdered, and the powder may be reconstituted as a black ink suitable for commercial printing operations. If desired, the hydroheater (16) output may be treated in a filter press (252) to obtain a filter cake (258), and this cake (258) may be subsequently subdivided and treated with ink carriers to form a processing ink. In a preferred embodiment, dilute printer washup material containing up to 5% by weight residual ink therein may be directly processed in the hydroheater (16); this eliminates the need for preliminary chemical treatment and sludge formation.

Abstract: In order to enrich natural gas or other hydrocarbon gases with hydrogen, thus reducing the carbon content and thereby achieving a reduction or elimination of the discharge of carbon dioxide during combustion of the gases, a pyrolytic process is conducted in the feed stream for the natural gases or hydrocarbon gases which are to be burned. The gas is passed through a reactor in which it is decomposed at least partially into a carbon constituent and a hydrogen constituent. The carbon constituent is removed to a desired level. Any remaining constituent together with the hydrogen constituent is conveyed to the combustion process while the removed carbon constituent is conveyed out of the process for separate application. The pyrolytic process can be carried out on the entire stream or only on a partial stream.

Date Jan. 11, 1993A peptide linkage unit is employed for joining peptide and pseudopeptide sequences, including peptides and pseudopeptides that inhibit aspartic proteinase enzymes. The peptide linkage unit includes a phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage in place of a peptidyl carboxamide bond. If the peptide linkage unit is incorporated into a peptide sequence that would otherwise serve as an aspartic proteinase substrate and if it is positioned at a cleavage site within such peptide sequence, the phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage is resistant to cleavage and serves as an exploding transition state analog of such cleavage site. When so incorporated, the phosphinate methylene ammonium linkage can bind or interfere with the active site of aspartic proteinase enzymes and inhibit its activity. Preferred inhibitors contain a phosphinic acid methylene amine group joining the P1 and P1' residues and have a length of 3 to about 15 amino acid residues.

Abstract: A transmission is provided wherein selected configurational parameters of interacting spur gearing are modified to abate the vibration levels thereof due to the effects of differential thermal expansion of the gearbox housing. The chordal addenda of the gear teeth of the interacting spur gearing are extended by a predetermined amount, based upon the computed relative radial displacement of the centerlines thereof due to the differential thermal expansion effects, to provide modified interacting spur gearing having increased outside diameters. Such modified spur gearing provides an effective centerline spacing for the transmission such that the interacting spur gearing thereof has an operating contact ratio greater than the design contact ratio at engine start up. As the transmission reaches stabilized operating conditions the operating contact ratio of the modified spur gearing is substantially equal to the design contact ratio due to the effects of differential thermal expansion on the transmission gearbox housing. In addition, the helix angle of the interacting spur gearing is substantially increased to counteract the effects of differential thermal expansion on the gearbox housing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for mounting an axial turbo-machine, preferably a low-pressure compressor for a gas turbine, constructed without a parting line with a whole or constructed rotor. From the design point of view, problems arise regarding the mounting of the stationary guide vane rings in the case of a design without a parting line and a whole rotor. The problem is solved by dividing the guide vane rings into sectors in a number greater than two. These sectors are brought radially into position and are guided and fixed in the correct position by guide rings which are applied around each guide vane ring composed from sectors. Each composed guide vane ring with the surrounding guide ring is guided and fixed to the preceding guide ring and all the guide vane rings are successively built up around the whole or constructed rotor. The guide rings mounted together constitute a stiff annular element.

Abstract: Correction of the counter result (18) of a counting point (Z3) by the corresponding counter results (20) of neighbouring counting points (Z2, Z4) is permissible only if a further check has been made to ensure that the sections between these counting points which have been signalled as still occupied as a result of the counting difference are actually free; this is preferably done by comparing the counting results of other counting points (Z1, Z5) on either side of the faulty point (Z3). To correct counting errors also in the section containing branched lines, counter results are allocated to all lines in these sections. The free signal conditions for these sections are used to find free signal equations and from the two free signal equations for each counting point is found a correction equation which establishes the condition in which a counter result may be regarded as clearly false and correctable. The counter results are processed in computers which retain the axle counts of the counting points which they passed for each train. The counting point information is allocated to the storage fields in the computers for the individual trains by the concatenation of the counting points by the free signal equations applicable to them.
